Tires BX 24- Who actually unloads tires w/BH

Note to self....
After purchasing a quick fill adapter it has dawned upon me that all tire stems are apparently not air / liquid stems. Not sure what those would look like but its pretty clear mine are intended for air only. Seems I will need to look at another adapter to get water in there or different stems.

Kevin I don’t know of the different stem you are referring to but in my case the tires I have filled you could fill by removing the existing core and with a $15 valve used for adding liquid to a tire do the job on any tire.

What hasn't dawned on you is you have to take the valve core out of the valve before you can fill the tire.

1*There isn't any such thing he just don't realize he has to remove the valve core from the valve before he can fill the tire.

I know the core has to come out but it still does not appear that this quick fill valve will fit. Though I confess, I have never attempted this before. It just does not look like it will work.

I purchased this one ....
"Use this all-brass, no-rust unit to fill tractor tires with water or calcium/water ballast. Design lets air escape automatically so you don't have to stop and vent while filling. Attaches to standard 3/4" hose and air/liquid tire valves only."

But it looks like I may need this one...

"Permits fast filling of tires with fluid for ballast. Button valve on side releases air displaced by fluid. Hose connection fits 3/4" standard garden hose. Comes with 2 extra bushings for small tems.
